[Duo2400] Re: cleaning permanent marker off of a duo

[Larry Friedman]

I have used Bestine (an adhesive solovent and cleaning agent) for 
various tasks. When removing price-stickers from CD jewel cases it 
didn't mar the plastic in any way, and it has even helped remove 
price-stickers from record jackets without damaging the printed 
cardboard below. Only metallic inks seem to be affected.
